"Take a picture with your phone."

"That's a great idea!"

A moment later, the flashlight app on the phone was turned on, and the light shone into the space under the stage.

Xue Lan trembled violently, as if she had been discovered to have no other option but to die.

Ling Ziqian's heart was beating very fast. Although he was nervous, he wasn't particularly scared.

He had deliberately hidden in a corner, and there were also some miscellaneous items to cover himself. If he was still discovered even like that, Ling Ziqian had no choice but to accept his fate.

"See that? It's filthy in there. I'm so glad I didn't go in!"

"I saw a rat. There can't be anyone inside. Let's go, back to the party!"

The police muttered a few words and left; they didn't come in. If they had, they would definitely have found Ling Ziqian and Xue Lan.

The footsteps and voices coming from outside gradually faded away and disappeared.

Once the entire auditorium quieted down, Ling Ziqian breathed a long sigh of relief.

Xue Lan stopped trembling, but she was still afraid and clung tightly to Ling Ziqian.

"They're gone. Let's go outside," Ling Ziqian said softly.

"Wait a little longer," Xue Lan muttered.

Aren't you afraid of the rats here anymore?

"I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid that you'll be taken away by them!"

That one sentence almost melted Ling Ziqian's heart.

He relaxed his tense posture and moved to a more comfortable position, letting Xue Lan sit on his lap.

Without the tension, in this pitch-black environment, they were so intimate. Suddenly, it became incredibly ambiguous!

The fragrance emanating from Xue Lan stirred Ling Ziqian's heartstrings.

Xue Lan seemed oblivious to the ambiguity, remaining nestled in Ling Ziqian's arms.

If it weren't for the unfortunate circumstances, the way the two of them were behaving would definitely be something only lovers would do!

The police searched Shilian Middle School thoroughly, but found nothing.

Even though they were charged with intentional assault, they were powerless to do anything because they couldn't find Ling Ziqian.

Chen Mailong was furious when he didn't see Ling Ziqian!

He kicked several policemen hard, and the officers who were kicked could only curse inwardly, not daring to retaliate.

However, Chen Mailong's actions were filmed by some students.

After being kicked hard by Ling Ziqian, Chen Mailong was determined to kill Ling Ziqian, otherwise he wouldn't be able to eat or sleep today!

"You bunch of useless trash, go find it again, or you'll all be fired!"

"Yes……"

The police officers, like servants, quickly lowered their heads and walked towards various parts of Shilian Middle School.

Chen Mailong's expression turned angry and twisted, as if he had swallowed gunpowder.

He turned around, wanting to ask Cui Qiuzhen, but Cui Qiuzhen had already disappeared.

In the classroom of Class 1, Grade 12.

This was Cui Qiuzhen's class, but she didn't attend. Instead, she took out her phone and posted on Weibo with her classmates.

She is a teacher, and therefore comes into contact with a different group of people.

Students sharing Weibo posts might go largely unnoticed, but it's different when teachers share them.

In Haitang City, the media, with their keen sense of smell, have already sent reporters to Shilian Middle School.

hall.

Then another policeman walked in.

Ling Ziqian's heart tightened. Luckily, he listened to Xue Lan and didn't go out, otherwise he would have encountered the police not long after.

"You're right to listen to me, aren't you!" Xue Lan chuckled, trying to make the best of a bad situation.

"Hmm." Ling Ziqian also gave a wry smile.

"We've been through thick and thin together, haven't we?"

"Ah."

"Life is truly amazing to experience something like this so soon after we met."

"Quiet down, don't get caught."

"Well, but I have something else to say."

"What?"

"You might think I'm a bit crazy, but even though we just met, I feel like we've been friends for a long time. You give me a very familiar feeling, and there's no sense of unfamiliarity at all."

Ling Ziqian nodded, understanding now as to why Xue Lan was acting so erratically.

After saying all that, Xue Lan felt it wasn't enough. She reached out and touched Ling Ziqian's cheek, then kissed it in the darkness.

"I really like you," she murmured softly.

"Okay, I understand." Ling Ziqian was utterly speechless. At a time like this, this guy actually said something like that.

The footsteps grew closer, and Xue Lan began to tense up, her whole body trembling again.

However, the people outside don't seem to be in the mood to look for someone.

Ling Ziqian heard the sound of a lighter striking, and after a while, he smelled smoke.

"Brother Zhong, who exactly is Chen Mailong? Is he the son of some big shot?"

"Bullshit!" someone spat. "His family has some money. His parents run a small company. Because they are very familiar with our eldest son's son, they boss us around."

"Damn it, Zhong-ge, you should have said so earlier! I would have turned on him earlier. Damn it, he almost kicked me in the groin!"

"Go ahead and turn on me if you want to lose your job."

"...That bastard, this shitty society!"

"You can curse all you want, but after you finish this cigarette, go back and continue acting like a coward!"

Not long after, the two people talking outside left.

Ling Ziqian has managed to obtain some clues.

Chen Mailong is not a super-rich second-generation heir; his parents just run a small company.

Xuelan suddenly muttered, "It's wet."

"Huh?" Ling Ziqian was startled.

"My clothes are wet, I'm sweating."

"Then let's go out."

"hold on."

Xue Lan held Ling Ziqian tightly, feeling that no one would come to search again.

But she didn't want to leave. Although it was dark here, Ling Ziqian was there.

Once she leaves here, she can no longer openly hug Ling Ziqian like this.

He smells so good, is this what a man smells like? He probably isn't a man yet.

Xue Lan's mind wandered, and she couldn't help but rub her head against Ling Ziqian's chest like a kitten.

"I said you..." Holding a soft, warm girl in his arms, Ling Ziqian was losing control.

"What?" Xue Lan asked curiously.

Ling Ziqian didn't say anything. Although he felt embarrassed, he didn't deny that he quite liked holding this guy.

My phone vibrated. Dou Xiaorong had sent me a message asking where Ling Ziqian was hiding and urging him to come out and see what was going on.

"Let's go, let's go out."

"No, others will come looking for us!"

"No way!" Ling Ziqian said, both amused and exasperated.

"Definitely! I was right just now!"

"Let's go, something's happened outside, Chen Mailong is probably in trouble."

"Then could you kiss me? I was so scared just now."

"You really know how to make excuses," Ling Ziqian said, reaching out and touching her still somewhat swollen cheek.

She gave Xue Lan a light kiss, and Xue Lan was so happy, she giggled.

They left the stage together. Xue Lan was fine, but Ling Ziqian was covered in dust.

Xue Lan blushed and smiled as she helped Ling Ziqian pat his clothes.

At this moment, various noises came from outside, growing louder and louder, but it was impossible to hear what they were saying.

Ling Ziqian and Xue Lan walked out of the auditorium and witnessed an unbelievable scene.

Many reporters carrying cameras and microphones appeared at the school.

Chen Mailong and a dozen police officers were surrounded by students coming down from the teaching building.

The students wouldn't let them leave, and the reporters took the opportunity to interview the police officers, asking them about their purpose in coming to the school.

Ling Ziqian took out his phone and looked at the news in Haitang City.

Many websites featured the video of Chen Mailong pulling Xue Lan's hair on their homepage.

Xue Lan was extremely embarrassed and screamed that she was so ashamed.

Huan Yue's voice rang out, "Young man, would you like to go and see what's going on in Chen Mailong's head?"

Ling Ziqian subconsciously looked at Chen Mailong in the crowd.
